Anecdotal, but, I'm a pretty tall guy (for American standards) at 6' something, and most of my bosses and senior management were taller than me.

There's an unexplained but significant correlation between height and IQ [1] which in turn successfully predicts a correlation with higher incomes. Doesn't mean it's causal, but the existence of such correlation is not in question.
